#jess rambles about random things

not an """ex-bi""" catholic blog getting the right to be blazed on the "queerest place on the internet" less than a week before pride...

I need to get back on my Jess interview grind and finish before Silverborn press starts up because tell me why I'm skimming one trying to find something and then realize she's talking about Ages. ACK! This is vital to my theorizing.....

[graedari]

hi! I love your marked Jessamine art, but I can't quite read the purple text, what does it say?

Hello lovely anon! Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked my Marked Jess art!! 💜💜💜 Not sure which doodle on the page between two you're referring to, but!

In reference to this one, The Outsider's text reads, "Oh... This is going to be... interesting..."

And in this one, her text behind her and Daud is one of the Heart lines and reads, "Where have the Overseers gone? They wade through chest high waters with their hounds".

Her Marked Abilities in the AU are linked to the Heart and when Corvo uses it, she herself will speak the lines almost as if in a trance receiving knowledge about whatever Corvo has used it on!

I do try to include any words on a drawing in the Image ID's in the Alt Text of my drawings! So if something is ever hard to read, I definitely recommend checking them out! But I'm also never opposed to answering asks for clarification!

microphone drop j.f x reader

plot: In which Vanessa forgets to tell Jessie she is mic’d up and all she talks about is you

warning: just fluff

Jessie was in the gym after training when Vanessa caught her.

“Jeff, Jflem, Jessatron, the Jessanator, the-“

“Hi” Jessie cut her friend off before she said random words with ‘jess’ in front of it.

“Whatchu up to?” Vanessa asked and Jessie motioned to the weights next to her “nice, hot your PB yet?”

Jessie crossed her head “no but y/n is helping me at home”

Vanessa smiled at the mention of you, she thought you were good for Jessie. You made her happy and Sinc always says she would never forget how giddy Jessie got after the first Australian friendly and you asked to swap shirts with her.

“How is y/n/n?”

Jessie blushed, “good, really good uhm did I tell you about my plan yet or-“

“No tell me, tell me now”

Even Vanessa forgot she was mic’d.

“Well after international break and before Olympics I was planning on proposing and-“ “what!” Vanessa jumped up in excitement

Jessie looked around nervously “yes?”

“This is huge Jessie” Vanessa smiled at her and she rubbed her already red cheeks “How are you going to do it?”

Jessie sat down next to Vanessa and pulled out her phone, excited to go into detail about this with someone.

“Okay so this is the ring, I saw her look at it before when we were buying a gift for her sister, it kinda gave me the whole idea in the first place but anyway” she rambled before going to her next photo of a FaceTime call with y/n’s parents as they gave a thumbs up.

“Then I got the permission from her parents but she likes to call them her rentals which I don’t get”

“Oh it’s like Australian slang there, parental figures without the ‘pa’” Vanessa explained and Jessie’s eyes widened as she finally got it “How do you know that?”

“Ellie”.

Jessie nodded before swiping to the next picture of confirmed plane tickets to Australia, your homeland “she thinks we’re going on a spontaneous trip to see her family, which we are but I’m also going to propose to her there” she explained and Vanessa swore she had never seen her captain so happy.

“And then I bought her this dress she always said she wanted but she said it was too cold to wear in London so I got it so she could wear it in Australia” Jessie said, swiping to the next picture as Vanessa realised Jessie had made an album dedicated to the planning of the big event.

“You going to do a speech”

“I want to try, I wrote one but I’m not that great at remembering lines” Jessie said, scratching behind her ear “that’s fine you’re good at thinking on the spot and also knowing y/n she will be saying yes even before your knee hits the ground”

Jessie smiled “I only plan on doing the ‘proposal’ thing once so I want it to be perfect for her”

Vanessa slapped her friend in the shoulder supportively “I’m sure y/n will think it’s perfect no matter what”.

It wasn’t until later when Jessie had finished spotting Vanessa on chest pressed and the social media came over asking for the mic was when her face paled over.

“You were mic’d the entire time?” She asked, her cheeks red as panic now evident on her face.

“Did I forget to tell you?” Vanessa asked as she thought back to their conversation.

“You know you cannot use any of that”.

anything u wanna say abt until dawn?? it can be hcs, theories, whatever comes to ur mind :)

not to be creepy but i wanna hear you yap abt until dawn 😭

HI ANON so sorry im sick so i slept in. its not creepy at all dont worry hehe ill gladly talk about this stupid game all day!!! honestly its all gonna be random hcs not much correlation whatsoever

• mike is NOT a gamer. especially fighting games oh lord as much as he tries he just cannot. he’s like a permanent noob. i fear even a 90 year old grandma can match his level…doesn’t mean he doesn’t enjoy those games! just that he sucks at it. whenever he plays with chris or josh it’s like watching a murder unfold infront of your eyes….it’s brutal. but i mean hey with having two amputated fingers you can’t blame him. he’s surprisingly good at rhythm games though. when you think of mike i doubt you think of osu or pjsk but god DAMN he’s weirdly good.

• chris is everyone’s go-to tech support guy. your phone is being slow? your computer isn’t working? can’t figure out where your file went? just ask and he will 99.99% of the time help fix it. not before teasingly calling them old teehee he tries to explain how to prevent it from happening again but he uses all these technical mumbo jumbo terms it flies over most peoples heads. mike likes hearing chris ramble about all that though, even if he doesn’t understand it he thinks it’s adorable…(chris x mike is REAL ITS REAL!!! still calls him a dork though. always he always will. because it’s true and mike loves him for it.)

• i ideally imagine sam’s room to be the MOST comfortable place on earth. like there’s always some candle going, cute little plants everywhere, warm tones, fairy lighting, fuzzy blankets, like it’s just a room you’d feel so safe in!!! and oh my god does she always have the best snacks. movie nights at her house go CRAZYY it’s literally the ideal spot. the gang get together every so often and have them, but sam really goes all out with the snacks and drinks and decor!! josh gets a $5 entry fee just because hes josh hehe (not really but i like to imagine josh is always like “i owe you one!” when it ends..he pays in kisses and cuddles)

• jessmatt is REAL their potential relationship dynamic is so cute!!! i feel like mike is definitely not the right guy for her, matt is more mellow which imo suits her better. him and emily are cute but….idk. all i know is matt would be an absolute sweetheart to jess, like he’d spend hours looking for perfects gifts for her and remind her of how beautiful she is inside and out constantly….always admiring her and hyping her up whenever she gets insecure….i can’t sobs she’s just as sweet back to him. jess isn’t that into sports but you best believe she will ALWAYS cheer him on in football (sometimes matt gets embarrassed from how loud she does…..) and she always has some little treat for him after he wins.

• ashley having such a creative and talented mind…not only can she write, she loves pottery and painting and occasionally knitting…everyone has a handmade gift from ash somewhere in their house. and it’s not like a quick little thing no she takes her TIME!!! and it always comes in a box with a pink bow and a heartfelt note attached to it!! she is just so babygirl. always so thoughtful and imaginative her room is full of posters and her own art and it’s all so colorful and BEAUTIFUL!!!! and oh so humble she tends to downplay her skill like girl you just wrote the most gut-wrenchingly divine well-thought out absolutely incredible piece of fiction and she’s like “it’s not the best 😓” and everyone is like “ash what the hell do you mean this is the best thing i’ve EVER read”

• josh and sam….ough….ough my heart💔❤️💔❤️……as much as sam was traumatized and by everything that went down and is still somewhat hurt by his actions, she’s still there for josh. still holds him close and comforts him, still tells him it’s all going to be okay, still lets him know he’s loved, still kisses his forehead and runs her fingers lovingly through his hair….sobs so loudly AHHH!! of course they’re still pranksters to each other. the amount of dumb pranks josh pulls on her nothing is safe hehe he’s always scheming. his favorite is the whoopee coushin because it’s so dumb and incredibly unfunny it actually physically pains her while he’s laughing his ass off fucking in HYSTERICS over how unamused she is…little does he know sam’s got some tricks up her sleeve too…

• emily’s closet is UNMATCHED!!! her habit of spending ridiculous amounts of money on clothes has only furthered but no one can lie she is just…amazing with dressing. she loves going clothes shopping with the girls and somehow always manages to find something that they all love!! she’ll help the guys too but….eh…..not really her cup of tea (men’s fashion that is). she’s made up with jess and they’re friends now, but emily will always stay emily and make her sharp, witty comments about everyone and everything teehee. she is so caring and kind deep down though, and an even better friend to get advice from!! just don’t ask her how to save money better ahem she can’t help with that 😅

• also mike went back and got wolfie. they’re best friends mike has hundreds of photos of him literally just sitting. being cute. half his posts on instagram are wolfie. he has so many damn nicknames for that wolf it’s crazy he’s already forgotten like half of them. wolfie could literally tear apart his house and after awhile of him being mad he’d be like “but he’s so cute….i can’t stay mad at you bud who’s a good boy” mike your couch is unrecognizable he is NOT a good boy for that 😭❌🙅‍♂️

remember how i said long-distance situationships are hard? yeah i’m still in the trenches.

☾ ⋆*･ﾟ:⋆*･ﾟ☾ ⋆*･ﾟ:⋆*･ﾟ☾ ⋆*･ﾟ:⋆*･ﾟﾟ☾

when you and ellie are going through long distance, she would beg you to send lil updates throughout your day, what you were doing…any random thought that pops into your head…literally anything. and then at night, she always asks to facetime so she can see your face and hear your voice.

you’re both on your bed, your head squished up against a pillow as you listen to ellie ramble on about whatever the fuck dina and jesse have been up to. she stops suddenly and looks at you, “did you hear a word i just said?”

“no…was too busy thinkin’ ‘bout somethin’ else…” you mumble, mouth halfway on the pillow. ellie raises her eyebrows slightly, “and what is that?” she puts her hand to her ear knowing full well what you’re about to say. “you…everything about you…” she smirks and nods her head slowly, “i figured.” she chuckles and lays on her stomach so you’re not just staring at each other face to face, the only thing separating you is the tiny glass wall (and however many miles are in between you, but don’t worry about that).

“i miss you,” you grumble “not the same without you here, els. i wish you could’ve come with me.” ellie���s eyebrows furrow lightly and she smiles “i know, baby…i miss you too. i love you so much, just remember that i’m always with you. literally, like, in your brain. i’ve set up shop in there, so if you think of something funny trust it was me,” she smirks and you laugh out loud, always grateful for her humor to lighten your melancholy. “i thought i felt a tickle in there earlier. guess it was you, huh?”

“yup!” she says, popping the “p” and chuckling for a bit before she settles back in and looks at you. “we’ll be together before you even know, i swear.” you smile weakly at her and kiss your phone over and over again, “hope you felt those, they were for you,” you giggle with a wink.

the rest of your night is spent talking nonsense, until you fall asleep still on call. ellie watches you for a bit before going to sleep herself, not daring hanging up and accidentally waking you up.

☾ ⋆*･ﾟ:⋆*･ﾟ☾ ⋆*･ﾟ:⋆*･ﾟ☾ ⋆*･ﾟ:⋆*･ﾟﾟ☾

extra: some texts y’all would probably send each other throughout the days (are these mine and said situationships you may ask? mind your own business…)

sleep deprived

pairings: gustavo fring x fem!reader

summary: your boss noticed you’re overworking yourself and decides to do something about it.

a/n: gus got that email rizz

warnings: really messy lol

masterlist

You couldn’t sleep. You couldn’t. Gus had you making ninety pounds worth of meth every week, and due to your partners’ sudden disappearance, you were stuck doing all the work by yourself. You sighed, thinking back to how you got into this position.

You were a just a broke college student, trying to pay off your loans when you you met Jesse. You knew each other back in high school, and now he was your dealer. The two of you became buddies and one day you walked in on him and Walt talking about somebody named Gustavo Fring, the owner of a fast food restaurant with an undercover drug business.

You needed money and you convinced them to let join in. Realizing that the “the more the merrier” shit you had pulled really was just that, shit. After they had taught you the recipe, you ended up doing everything, always.

Gus had put to lines under the deadlines, signifying that if you didn’t get this done in time — there’d be consequences. At the same time you had a lot of due college assignments, and skipping all your lectures. So you practically lived in the lab, sleeping and eating there, until you had no time for either of those things.

You were leaning against the counter with a hand on your jaw, steadying your face. Your eyes shut and light snores coming out of your mouth. As Gus inspected your face, he realized you’d never once look so peaceful as you did in that moment.

“I see you’re getting a lot of work done,” he commented, knowing it’d wake you. Gus needed to talk to you about this. He had cameras everywhere and had been paying very close attention to how much time you’d been spending at the lap. You had your laptop and school books there, a few snacks and amount less cups of coffee.

The sudden sound of his voice startled you as you woke up with a final snore. “Shit– I’m so sorry! I-I didn’t even notice I was, uh’falling asleep” your slurred, your words blurring together due to your grogginess. You looked up at him with lazy eyes.

Gus looked at you through his glasses, his expression as emotionless as usual. You thought you saw a glimpse of emotion in his eyes, though it was probably just your sleep deprivation making you see things. Gustavo Fring doesn’t care for anyone. Especially not some random meth cook who can’t even do her job right… right?

“You should get home and get some rest, ___. Your drowsiness is affecting your work performance.” Stated as a fact, though functioning more as an excuse.

“I can’t, sir! I’ve only made like, half of the meth I was supposed to and–“ you rambled on, but he interrupted you almost instantly. “Stop it, ___! You have done your part. Your partners’s neglect of their responsibilities is not your problem,” as he shushed you, his expression remained the same though his voice got notably more aggressive. “I’ll consider getting you new partners, you’ve mastered the arts of cooking now.” In that moment, you couldn’t be bothered by his comment on your friends; all you wanted to do was go back to sleep.

“Are you absolutely sure? I’ll get back to work as soon as I wake up, I promise!” You insisted, and he shook his head. “No, you’ll have the rest of the week off,” he said. “I value your effort but I cannot have your drowsiness affect my product.” Gus explained while putting a gentle yet firm hand on your shoulder. You eyed the hand and as did he, though he didn’t let go before he you reluctantly agreed.

“Alright, I guess,” you sighed. He smiled professionally as he took out his notebook, scribbling something something. “Fantastic! Write down your email and we can discuss your work ethic further.” He demanded suggested, handing you a note and a pen. You smiled as you messily wrote down your email address and gave it back to him.

When you went to sleep that night all you could think about was your interaction earlier, and how this might’ve been his stiff attempt at flirting with you. Although you figured this could’ve easily been your head playing tricks on you agin.

When you woke up the next morning you noticed a gmail notification. Written bellow a gusfr@gmail.com it read:

Hello, I hope you slept a worthwhile and woke up energetic and better. I suggest we meet up at my restaurant to further discuss our game plan.

Sincerely, Gustavo Fring.

Did Gustavo Fring just ask out out on a date?

Grippy

Man I’m so pissed that this is gonna be my first post but I have GOT to break my silence for Grippy. I need to know why these cheeks hit the fucking airwaves. She a ten piece like a mcnugget. What else can I really say? We’re talking about Grippy by Cash Cobain & J. Cole.

I’m not usually going to dive into the lyrics this much, but something about this song broke me. Every bar is straight ass and I’m compelled to talk about it. Grippy. I’m also going to be much more organized than this, but I’ve lost my. Fucking. Grippy. On what semblance of sanity I retain.

The song starts immediately with a dull ass beat and J. Cole briefly describing the progression of a relationship between him and a girl.

“She like my kick game

And when you know me, you don’t kick game

I put her front row at the Knick game

Now she in my phone with a nickname”

Unfortunately for us all, after a line where it seems like he’s actively trying to come up with said nickname because he’s just saying “it’s, it’s, ummm”, he tells us that she’s down in his phone as Grippy. Why? Don’t worry, he guides us through his thought process, just in case we were lost.

“Grippy, I call her that ‘cause it’s grippy”

What else, Jermaine?

“She thick in the hips, she a hippie

And she thick in the lips, she gon’ lick me”

-

“When she see me, she say she gon’ strip me

She gon’ chew on this stick like it’s Wrigley’s”

I don’t want to know that, Jermaine.

I don’t know why he thought this next bar would be a reasonable thing to say, but he also just said he wanted Grippy to gnaw on his wood like a beaver so I think dude was just operating on some real hell dimension vibes.

“She said she was gay until I slayed

Now she strictly dickly”

There’s no bars of noteworthy ass past this point from J. Grippy pages him and he hits 150 to get there, running Hollywood Cole a $100 base fine for speeding if the Grippyverse takes place in Cali. He has a Grippepiphany. We learn that Grippy is wet. Cole introduces Sabrina and Tiffany and they only pass one third of the Bechdel test. After he states that he “tryna see how that glove gon’ fit” (this is what OJ died for) and that he “wanna feel like [he] touchin’ [Grippy’s] kidneys”, he offers to take her kids to Disney.

That was utterly terrible, but we’re not done. You fucking buffoons have sorely neglected the real villain of this track: Cash Cobain.

“I wanna kill it like rest in peace

Eat on that pussy like it was a recipe”

So far, not worse than Grippy. A real Trojan Horse of pussy verses. How bad could it get?

We have a brief respite while Cash fucking rambles while saying random women’s names, but then he throws us one of his best bars on the song:

“You piss my bitches off like a potty”

More woman rambling. He wants to make Jess a mess, he has something he must confess, he wants to see her undress and is about to send her his address. He wants to fuck Millie ‘til she’s dizzy, and wants her to “suck it sloppy, make it spitty”. Finally, while still addressing poor Spitty Millie, he delivers his magnum opus:

That’s all lots of unpack, and we can truly only scratch the surface. The Grippyverse is immense, and I was certainly overwhelmed by Marvel-level character buildup clogging the narrative artery. Grippy, Sabrina, Tiffany, Destiny (rest in peace), Pregnancy Scare Shanti, Zari, Mia, Jada, Mash Potatoes Kayla, Good Vagina China, Shy Niyah, Toni Macaroni, Polisher Lexi and a possible second Destiny, Marni and her immense conflict, Jess the Mess, and Spitty Millie are all introduced in the freakiest fucking four minute role call I’ve heard to date. How do they relate to each other, if at all? We know the first three are friends, as Cole state’s he thought the whole clique was bad but liked Grippy the best. Are the two Destiny’s aware of each other? Did Polisher Destiny murk Destiny Rest In Peace to take her place? Why doesn’t Cash want to talk to Marni? What did she do to piss off bitches like a potty? Why is the beat so fucking boring?

I haven’t touched on how the song sounds. It sounds the same. The whole song sounds like a trickle of consistent noise. The beat is boring as shit and remains boring as shit the whole run. I listened to the song a few times to really get a feel and kept forgetting it was on once I began to ignore the lyrics.

The one ounce of joy I derived from this song were the initial Genius annotations that were later replaced by people just desperately trying to make sense of this pile of wet sawdust by explaining the potty bar, and what a pager was. “UNC FREAKY” was a much better thing to read than exposition on why Jermaine Lamarr Cole immortalized some poor woman as Grippy, which was readily evident within context.

My Final Rating of Grippy

Lyrics: 2/10

One point awarded for the potty bar. I won’t explain myself. Another point awarded out of respect for Destiny Rest In Peace (peace be upon her, Amen)

Vocals: 5/10

Literally just so average. Nothing special and nothing terrible, and just not worth giving anything other than an average score.

Sound: 5/10

Once again just so infuriatingly bland. Absolutely nothing special about it whatsoever, for better or worse.

Overall Score

Averaging my numbers equals out to

But I will not tarnish my good name by rating this hot bowl of mac n cheeks so high, so it gets a

[the-starlight-papers]

I was really big into kingdom keepers in middle school and random unhinged stuff that happened keeps just hitting me like a sack of bricks.

For those who aren’t aware, the premise of the first book in the series is “the Disney villains are real and doing evil, but they can only be seen by Disney characters. So we’re going to make holograms of some kids to be used as guides in the park during the day, but when the kids go to sleep at night, they wake up as their holograms in the park.”

The rest is under a readmore bc I had a lot to ramble about.

There’s a ton of stuff that randomly gets retconned after the first book. The notable one is that basically everyone (hologram or not) can see the Disney characters running around, which is funny because it basically destroys the whole premise of the series.

They also randomly switch the character who is good with computers around the second or third book. The new guy who’s good with computer’s first name is literally Dell.

The plot of the books are kinda hard to follow, since there is kind of a focus on going to as many different Disney attractions as possible.

The first book has a pretty coherent plot. The main plot is that the Disney Villains are trying to like. Escape the parks or something, and the kids have to follow hidden clues from Walt Disney to power up the wards. There’s a side plot where the main character Finn’s friend from school (and love interest) Amanda, is secretly helping them in a “knows more than she lets on” way because her sister Jess had been kidnapped and was being mind controlled by Maleficent.

In the second book, Jess gets kidnapped AGAIN, and they have to run around animal kingdom to try and find her. The twist is they can’t go to sleep because if they do their holograms will be captured by the villains, and they have no way to Return to their bodies without the magical garage door opener. They also use Pictochat on the Nintendo DS to communicate.

In the third book, their wise old guy mentor Wayne goes missing. Also the villains are up to something in Epcot. Good thing they turned Jess and Amanda (who BTW are not actually sisters, and are both runaways with superpowers called Fairlies (short for Fairly Human) that are hiding from the government) into holograms so they can help. Too bad their magical garage door opener got stuck in lost and found, so they can’t wake back up. Also the villan’s whole plan was to make it so the seatbelts couldn’t unlock and hold the guests hostage.

The fourth book is basically “I thought we were done but now we need to go to Hollywood studios”. Philby, the computer guy, has probably committed multiple felonies at some point due to hacking into Disney’s systems to make it so they stop waking up as holograms in the parks manages to mess up his one job and now they’re randomly getting stuck in the parks again. Also people (including one of the other main characters and Finn’s mom) can get possessed by the evil villains, indicated by their eyes turning green. The villan’s plan this time is to take out the power plant for the parks.

The fifth book is Disney cruise. I’m gonna be honest this is where they start to get really nonsensical. They’ve introduced hologram model 2.0 which has some visual improvements for like. Their actual purpose, but mostly are beneficial for the main characters because now they’re mostly intangible (except for on their hands and feet) which is a big benefit on the “hey you’re a normal kid running around at night AND you glow in the dark” since they can’t be punched as easily anymore.

Book 6 is “we’re still on the fucking boat”. Again, idk what we’re doing here besides trying to stop the evil guys from doing something evil. The book culminates with an evil ritual where one of Finn’s friends from school dies graphically.

Book 7 is basically oh fuck, someone died. This is serious now. And the way I mean this is serious is that I mean “oh this whole operation is controlled by the US military.” Because you know the second that they heard “oh we’ve made a way to make people mostly invulnerable” and they immediately went “ah we can use this for combat.” Someone made a hologram of Finn’s dead friend that also is just a search engine to try and help him cope. Idk who thought that was a good idea. There’s some really weird sections in this book where characters get like. Stuck half tangible in a wall and it’s described in a lot of detail. Anyways this is the original Disneyland book and idk what happens besides Mickey shows up in a dramatic reveal because he had been like sealed away to stop the villains from harnessing his power. The old guy, Wayne, gets stabbed and dies. I think they saved everyone? Woo? We all have depression now.

The return: oh you thought we were done with this series. You thought wrong. There’s another trilogy and a spin-off book. The kids (they’re all like 18 at this point or something) go back in time to stop the villans from ever becoming real or something. They team up with no longer an old guy Wade to set up the clues that they used to save the parks back in book one. Also btw they went back in time as holograms, and then got stuck as 2D black and white images until Wayne was able to invent both color television and holograms in the span of like three days. The other issue here is that since they went back as holograms, their actual bodies are stuck in comas. Good thing they have Jess and Amanda to deal with their parents and try and keep them from like. Dying of dehydration. There’s a whole subplot here with a Fairlie who can read minds who has to try and read a US senator or something??? I don’t even know at this point.

Anyways that’s the plot of this series

The actual books have so much focus on the actual mechanics of “ok you’re half hologram now what”.

If they go somewhere that doesn’t have good projector access, they’ll just not be visible there. Places with projector shadow include: on rides with lots of scaffolding, in certain weird corners, near trees. Places without projector shadow include: random offices, hallways, ect. At some point the authors went ok this is annoying as hell and now any random camera can project holograms. which. Sure.

Certain characters can go “all clear” where they become 100% hologram. This is usually accomplished by letting your mind go blank since light doesn’t have thoughts. The main character Finn can go all-clear even in his human body if he tries really hard.

There’s a couple interesting questions raised here such as “what happens if you go all clear while the power’s out and no holograms are being projected?” and “what happens if you get stuck in all clear?” These questions are never answered or touched on again.

Also a significant portion of the plot rides on the goddamn magic garage door opener. It’s referred to as the fob. In the first book there’s multiple. After the first book this is retconned saying that if two returns get activated too soon to each other their minds could get stuck in limbo (basically they’d die). Large chunks of plot are focused on “we need to move the fob between parks” or “we lost the fob” or “the villains stole the fob” or “Philby has to hack into Disney’s servers to Return us since the villains stole the fob” or “Philby’s cat shut down his monitoring program and now I’m stuck here until he gets home from school to return me manually”

They apparently rewrote the first three books (imo the only good ones) in 2020???? I mean I guess it makes since because the books were outdated when I read them and the majority of my Disney knowledge is from when my family went there in 2014. Which at that point was 10 years after the first book released.

Starting in book 6, they added an online website where people could vote on new plot points, and submit character dialogue. This mostly just added a bunch of random asterisks and made it really distracting to read the books.

I also just learned there’s ANNOTHER GODDANM SEQUEL TRILOGY with the main characters kids. I’m tempted to read this and find out if being a hologram can be passed down genetically.

I don’t know where I was going with this whole ramblings but anyways. I hope you learned something about this book series that heavily impacted my childhood. I promise I’m not a Disney nut I just like weird fiction books.

MY FIRST CHOSEN DRAWING! (that's digital anyway..)

Drawing notes

I am proud to say that the chosen has made a very positive impact on my life it allowed me to see jesus and in a whole new light

The chosen does a great job at showing me the humanity of christ this show does a great job showing jesus having a sense of humor and loving his mother

And also showing his sorrow but that's to be seen at a later time I just love the way they show him loving his mother and his disciples

A lot of people get so caught up in his divinity they forget he was a man too a man a bared the weight of all our sins that he understands all of feelings because he felt them as well

This drawing has the characters in their season one outfits featuring Jesus hugging Simon Peter in the finale of season 1

Now I not saying that every single thing that happens in the show is entirely scriptureally accurate but to quite honest with you what Movie/TV show is about the bible is..

It has its own added characters to give the show more life such as Barnaby and Shula and Tamar And they man at the well which they named Jesse who they written as the brother the Simon the zealot

But it does have quite a bit that is scriptureally accurate such as the healing of the paralytic Man The healing of the leopard walking on water Jesus wept healing of the man at the pool and so on and so forth

If you're someone who watches movies about the Bible about the New testament about Jesus and you're just not connecting with it I recommend you try the chosen it feels real it feels like something that happened in real life it doesn't feel like something that was just written by a random man or made up religion it feels really good to watch it and to see Jesus in a whole new light it for sure made me feel closer to him and like I was seeing things in a new way

Anyway I'm rambling a bit I just wanted to sure my thoughts on series and and how much it means to me

And as always til next time!

Random TADC concept THEORY⁉️⁉️

Alright, so if we are to follow the theory that characters from the amazing digital circus are being sent there due to them playing a game or something like that. What if for some reason or someone Pomni is able to get out of the digital circus, and I can go back to the real world, which you feel like some sort of survivor guilt. Would it be like in Infinity Train in which she's gonna be trying to get her way back just like what Jesse did for Lake. In order to save others, if character growth actually happens for Pomni, then we would expect that compared to the first time where she just left Ragatha. And. That's it! She would this time actually care for these characters and want to bring them back to life or, like, back to the world they were. Thinking about it, this would throw us into another loop, and it's like. Things start all over again, and she's just caught in this infinitely, but who cares?

Ps sorry if some of these words don't sound right I was just rambling using speech to text and I have an accent. I did go back to change some things tho. But text to speech thought I was saying palm knee so that was funny.

hi dad!

i'm gonna ramble about one of my stories/ocs and i have a lot of them, but right now i really like this one for some reason.

so the main character's name is zero (he/it), and he was raised in a lab for reasons (he's not exactly a clone, but he was grown from human cells and they wanted to watch him grow up)

so when the story starts it's like 15/16 and the people who run the lab decide to have it move in with this random old lady and have it come for testing like once or twice a week

and since it's his first time living outside the lab he's obviously really nervous and sort of doesn't know how to act but eventually he meets this girl called jesse and they become friends and eventually a couple (also they're t4t yippee)

anyhow i really like it and i'm very proud of its design (i'm not gonnna show a picture because i want to stay on anon but i think it looks very cute)

anyway i really want to make this into an actual comic at some point, and i think i would make it usually really wholesome and then sort of horrifying at some points because of the whole human experiment thing

anyway bye and thanks for letting me ramble to you :D

Hey kiddo!!! Those sound awesome!!! It sounds awesome, I love the balance between sci fi horror and cute rom com!! The characters sound really interesting too! If you want to share some art or anything privately, I'd be more than happy to see! I'm so proud of you kiddo, and I'm always happy to hear people ramble!

okay here’s the thing about bloody mary. it’s one of the most essential episodes of one of the best seasons of the show. it’s literally the kickoff for the beloved psychic sam arc, and the way it’s done is BRILLIANT. the rambling is under the cut, but first i’ll say that of course the born-again identity is a fantastic episode. it has sam 1) making a friend and 2) suffering immensely, plus the plot-driven sam elements too, so i’m here for it, i am! but it’s NOT bloody mary.

so you’ve got all the nostalgic classics of this era of the show (which i'm having to cut down on for length oops): familiar lore but a good mystery; the lighting & desaturation, the clothes & hair, the shots that are eerily similar to ones seasons down the line (the ahbl and levee parallels alone, oh my god!!!); salmondean lying out of their asses and failing miserably; the bantering; “it might not be our thing” “when is it ever not our thing”; more lying and snooping; the side character of the week experiencing some genuinely scary shit, like, actual horror-movie horror; lines that are funny when you watch them but horribly ironic in hindsight (“600 years of bad luck”); committing b&e and property damage...you get the gist. and sam comes from all this. you can take s7 era away from sam and still have him, but you can't take away this. the roots of the show are the roots of him.

anyway, throughout it all, sam has nightmares. horrible nightmares that we experience with him, but we think they’re normal, and dean thinks they’re normal, and then sam says he has a secret. and we realize that it’s been building up to something. the pinnacle: sam, eyes bleeding, black veins crawling up his face, trying desperately to kill his own reflection as it tells him he’s inhuman. how many times did we see this happen metaphorically over the next five seasons? how huge is this theme for his character? and right here, right now, late at night in an old antique store in midwestern ohio, this is when it starts, when it’s raw, when he’s face to face not with a random character parallel but with himself and the literal mirrors all around him are the inescapable threat and we the audience have our stomachs drop as we realize for the first time that he’s not the Normal One. he’s the Other. there is something Wrong. you had those nightmares for days before she died.

and his reflection told him it was his fault jess died. and he tells the motw victim’s daughter that it’s okay, you couldn’t have stopped your loved one’s death, you should forgive yourself; but when he gets in the car with dean, he keeps his secret. to be normal, to be safe.

and then that last fucking shot, oh my god, those five incredible seconds of cinema: jess standing on a street corner as they drive away with the classic rock music in the background. continuing to raise the question of his psychicness, and ephemeral as ever in her white nightgown, wind in her hair, staring right at him and then she’s gone. and 15 seasons later he will still be thinking about her, and this moment is the last time he ever truly sees her.

this episode is so fundamental. it captures the essence of old-school-spn sam while having narrative and cinematic elements that set the stage for his character throughout the entire rest of the show. born-again identity is sam with a crisis in a hospital; bloody mary is sam with a crowbar and a secret. born-again identity is one of those episodes that’s about him; bloody mary is one of those episodes that’s the heart of him. and bloody mary deserved to win.

tag game~

tagged by the amazing @coquelicoq to list 5 topics i can talk on for an hour without preparing any material! thanksss <3 <3

this is honestly a really difficult one for me cos as much as i love to ramble, the prospect of having to do a talk for an hour about anything would a) make me INCREDIBLY anxious and 2) i would promptly forget everything i know about said subject literally the second i have to do the talk pfft.... wait... the prompt doesnt say i have to do the talk in front of people so hmm... maybe i'd be ok lol

anyway topics time lol (these aren't really in any order btw just writing them as i think of them)!

art history ofc... i could equally talk as much about art i love as much as art i HATE lol (duchamp's goddamn toilet fountain you're going fucking DOWN bitch)... can't promise my hour speech won't just be a list of fun art-y facts lol (like uh in medieval paintings that used gold leaf, artists would put down this red gesso/glue like mixture (called something like boll?) because the red gave the gold a warmer glow than just sticking it onto the plain wooden panel lol) or that it won't be me massively misremembering parts of my degree pfft...

history of the british monarchy lol! ok so i may not currently like the monarchy, but i am a MASSIVE fan of the history of the royals lol... especially the tudor era! a lot of my talk would be me trying to remember the order of the monarchs from william the conqueror until now (which would mean me singing the horrible histories monarchy song lol sorry not sorry)... i would also spend the time being like 'yeh so this one had allegations of being gay, as did this one, and THIS one had several male favourites who he was definitely in relationships with' lol

kpop lol... not really sure what i would talk about? maybe specific groups (exo would be in contention for sure, they have a very interesting history tbh), or just the wider cultural phenomenon and history of kpop? or just like talk about niche kpop groups that basically no one remembers pfft (like that group that jackie chan made lol! already mentioned it on my kpop haveyouheard blog but people in the notes were like 'wait jackie chan did WHAT???' lol...) like i definitely don't know a lot of stuff, but i know more than the average joe so like... it might be fun idk??

queer films lol... i'd also say films in general, but i definitely feel like i have more niche and interesting knowledge specifically of queer films so.... i DEFINITELY could talk for well over an hour about that lol! this would also definitely include me complaining about films like call me by your name and blue is the warmest colour lol... (i actually was speaking to myself the other day about both films and how perceptions of both have changed SO much over the years since they came out lol...) but i'd mainly want to talk about the amazing queer films i've watched over the years!!... i'd also throw in some talk of asian queer media here since i've been watching it for literally 6 or so years at this point lol...

back to history, this time ancient egypt! returning to my childhood roots with this one lol i know a lot of random things about ancient egypt that i could potentially string into an hour long talk? actually recently went to an exhibition at the place where they film downton abbey (it's not called that btw lol) where it had a whole thing about the discovery of tutankhamun's tomb in 1922 which had a lot of interesting info tbh! dont come to this talk if u dont want to hear me talk about all the incest that went on in ancient egyptian royalty pfft... (like...historians believe that tut's mother was also his aunt, and his sister was also his wife, which kinda explain why none of their children survived... royals of all eras really were like 'we have to intermarry to keep the bloodline pure' and it's like (breaking bad bald guy meme) jesse NO that's what's KILLING you!!!!!!!!!!)

for most of these i'd basically say something and then immediately be like 'don't fact check me on that though' because chances are i remembered the thing wrong pfft...

tagging (no pressure to do it ofc!): @abnerkrill @asoftspotforangels @sylvasa @dollopheadsandclotpoles @zelvuska @micamicster & whoever else wants to do it!!
